There is no carveout end of filibuster for this bill.
After losing the vote to end debate on the bill 49-51, Harris went home, and the special vote to “carve-out” the filibuster for this bill only failed 48-52.
M.u.s.t. k.e.e.p. p.r.e.s.s.u.r.e. o.n!!! Don’t trust any of them!
Great news for free Americans!
Which RINO voted with the rats?
No one. All 50 republicans joined with Manchin and Sinema to beat back the rule change.
Sorry to disappoint you.
Now watch them pass the NASA spending bill….with new out of this world voting rights earmarked in.
Maybe if they change the name of the bill to the Vote Fraud Bill then it’ll pass.
IKR!! So sick of the negativists! Its like being on the same team as a bunch of Eeores constantly sucking jog out of everything! 🙄
Thank GOD.
The score was 51-49.
Never mind I see now
Their vector always points to how much authority they can obtain for themselves. If they vote to give up the filibuster, they luze authority.
Laws held in place to protect against despots and dictators.
Joe "Corn Pop" Biden just had himself a bad day.
All right. Mitt finally comes through for team America.
Schumer wanted it off the table to protect himself in the primary. Schumer is on record being for and against the filibuster rule. He could be labeled a hypocrite. He must not want it discussed before mid-terms.
They keep refering to it as a “Voting Rights Bill” which it certainly isn’t typical Marxist wording
It’ll be back in some other form. Commiecrats are not going to give up.
Democrats fail to change Senate rules to pass NO voting rights bill.
Fact check completed
Democrats plan another rigging scam
